A member of the Palestinian resistance group’s political bureau has revealed that Hamas is suggesting during ceasefire negotiations that an independent government of non-partisan figures run post-war Gaza and the Israeli-occupied West Bank.

“We proposed that a non-partisan national competency government manage Gaza and the West Bank after the war,” Hossam Badran said in a statement on Friday about the ongoing negotiations between Israel and Hamas with mediation from Qatar, Egypt, and the United States.

“The administration of Gaza after the war is a Palestinian internal matter without any external interference, and we will not discuss the day after the war in Gaza with any external parties,” Badran added.

The negotiations are occurring in Doha, Qatar and Cairo, Egypt with the aim of bringing about a ceasefire in Gaza as well as the return of hostages still held there by Hamas.

Israel’s war on Gaza, now in its 280th day, has martyred at least 38,345 Palestinians majority of them women and children and injured 88,295, with more than 10,000 estimated to be buried under the debris and 9,500 abducted by Tel Aviv.
